Milling Machines
Milling machines are computer controlled machine tools used for shaping metal and other solid materials. They are vertical mills that have the ability to move along the Z-axis as well as the usual X and Y, making it particularly useful for applications like relief sculptures.
Milling machines are a particularly versatile style of machine, as the x-y table rides up and down the column on an adjustable knee. This makes them particularly good at performing a vast range of operations including slot and keyway cutting, planing, drilling, diesinking, rebating and routing.
Milling machines and other types of equipment improve productivity in the engineering industry and reduce the number of human errors made. Although equipment such as milling machines can be costly, they are well worth the money, as the end result is a high quality product and client satisfaction.
